DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Now, preferred embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to the attached drawings.

As shown, a makeup brush 1000 has a handle part 500 and a bristle part 100.

In the handle part 500, an inner space 580 is formed.

The handle part 500 is coupled with the bristle part 100 through a hollow connection part 300.

In the inner space of the handle part 500, a container for fragrant material 600 is mounted. The container for fragrant material 600 contains a plurality of fragrant materials 6. The fragrant materials 6 emanate fragrance scent from themselves and they may be natural or artificial.

For instance, they may be dried flowers for scent or coffee beans for scent as the natural things. They may be produced as the artificial things by mixing powdered or liquidated basic fragrant materials into thermoplastic rubber and then injecting or extruding it.

In this embodiment, the front end of the handle part 500 is open to form an opening 588 and an inner space 580 is formed extending from the opening 588. The container for fragrant material 600 is mounted in the inner space 580.

The bristle part 100 has a large number of bristle hairs and the rear end portions are bonded together to form a bundle.

In the drawings, the shaded part 101 on the rear portion of the bristle part 100 expresses the bonded portion.

According to the present invention, a passage member 200 is provided.

The passage member 200 has a pipe part 201, and one end of the pipe part is connected to the container for fragrant material 600 and the other end of the pipe part is connected to the bristle part 100.

The passage member 200 also has a plate part 208 formed around the pipe part 201. The fragrant scent from the fragrant materials 6 in the container for fragrant material 600 is sent to the bristle part 100 through the pipe part 201 of the passage member 200 and the fragrant scent is diffused when the makeup brush 1000 is used.

The container for fragrant material 600 mounted in the inner space 580 can be replaced through the opening 588. Accordingly, it is possible to use the makeup brush 1000 semi-permanently through refill of the container for fragrant material 600.

As shown, the handle part 500 and the bristle part 100 are coupled with each other along the longitudinal direction of the handle part 500 through the hollow connection part 300. The handle part 500 is detachably coupled with the hollow connection part 300.

In this embodiment, a groove 514 is formed around the outer surface on the front end portion of the handle part 500 and the hollow connection part 300 has a corresponding protrusion 304 around the inner surface of the hollow connection part 300. The groove 514 and the protrusion 304 are engaged with each other.

The bristle part 100 is inserted into the inner hole of the hollow connection part 300 to be detachably combined with the hollow connection part 300 at the opposite side of the handle part 500.

The passage member 200 is disposed between the handle part 500 and the bristle part 100 inside the hollow connection part 300. One end of the pipe part 201 is inserted into the container for fragrant material 600 and the other end of the pipe part 201 is inserted into the bristle part 100.

In this case, at the rear portion 101 of the bristle part 100 where the bristle hairs are bonded together, an inserting space 108 is formed into which the other end of the pipe part 201 is inserted.

Further, an inserting hole 608 is formed in the container for fragrant material 600 into which the one end of the pipe part 201 is inserted.

Meanwhile, the plate part 208 of the passage member 200 supports the rear side of the bristle part 200.

FIG. 3 shows an assembled cross-sectional view of the makeup brush according to this embodiment.

As described, the handle part 500 has the inner space 580 and the container for fragrant material 600 containing a plurality of fragrant materials 6 is mounted therein.

The hollow connection part 300 is arranged to couple the handle part 500 and the bristle part 100.

The passage member 200 is disposed inside the hollow connection part 300 and connects the container for fragrant material 600 and the bristle part to flow the fragrant scent from the fragrant materials 6 in the container for fragrant material 600 to the bristle part 100. At the same time, the passage member 200 holds the container for fragrant material 600 and the bristle part 100 inside the hollow connection part 300.

As a result, the makeup brush according to the present invention can emanate the fragrant scent as the user uses it and keep sufficient structure-strength. Further, through the opening 588, the user can replace the container for fragrant material 600 mounted in the inner space 580 of the handle part 500 with new one.
